Good Morning Frances!

I miss your posts on b/r. I just heard you're now posting for funhuddle. I will look you up on that site. I rarely visit it but now that you're a contributor, I will make a point to. I have always loved your work.

You may not be aware that...

NSS One on One is garnering TONS of attention, controversy, heated debate and excellant reader comments.

In this week's edition we discuss "NBA Talking Heads - The Best and Worst of NBA Broadcasting".

This is a must read and we would LOVE your opinion!

Hi Frances, how are you?

Yes, I have been following Lester, and he has performed well! Just wait until he gets settled in a little better to the speed/athleticism of the NBA. He will be a contributor in the C's rotation, of this I'm sure!

I know of a writer who has a book of poetry that he is trying to complete and shop around for publication. Might you be interested in him as a client? If so, I will put you two together.

How is the agency going? Swimmingly, I expect!

This article was originally published in support of Relay for Life. If you have read this before, then I apologize, but please considering donating at least $1 to Make a Wish in the memory of Josiah Herring. In light of several recent events I felt compelled to revisit cancer awareness and have not had the time for a new article. I Promise to have a new article out soon in support of the cause.

Thank you everyone!
